I haven't been getting out exploring as much, but on the 5th I took the kids to the `Polly's Cove trail <https://osm.org/go/Z12SF0sBh-?m=>`__.

We headed east towards Barbara Basin, but the trail was a little too rough for the youngests legs, so we found a good spot for our snack north of those islands.

    The Lunch Spot

Overall its a nice spot, I think I would go again with just the older one, or when the smaller one gets bigger. No rush though, its not a spot that I would go far out of the way for. `Taylor Head <{filename}20220701.rst>`__ was a much better spot. To give an exmaple, I put away my camera and just used my phone about 1/2 way through, there just wasn't anything to shoot. The only signs of wildlife that I saw was a couple of gulls, nothing else.
